A friend like you

 

There’s lots of things with which I’m blessed,
My problems have been few,
But of all, this one’s the best:
To have a friend like you

In times of trouble friends will say,
“Just ask, I’ll help you through it.”
But you don’t wait for me to ask,
You just get up and do it!

And I can think of nothing more
That I could wisely do,
Than know a friend, and be a friend,
And have a friend like you.

A Friend
